Target Heart Rate The old motto, no pain, no gain , is a myth that has been overpowered by the benefits of exercising comfortably. A great deal of this success has been promoted by the use of heart rate monitors. With the proper use of a heart rate monitor, many people find that their choice of exercise intensity is either too high or too low and exercise is much more enjoyable by maintaining their heart rate in the desired benefit range.
Using a Heart Rate Transmitter How to wear your wireless chest strap transmitter: 1. Attach the transmitter to the elastic strap using the locking parts. 2. Adjust the strap as tightly as possible as long as the strap is not too tight to remain comfortable. 3. Position the transmitter with the Spirit logo centered in the middle of your body facing away from your chest (some people must position the transmitter slightly left of center).
How the Heart Rate Control Program Works: Heart Rate Control uses your treadmill s incline system to adjust your heart rate. Increases and decreases in elevation affect heart rate much more efficiently than changes in speed. Additionally, changes in incline keep you in control of the machine s speed instead of the machine controlling you. Selecting a Heart Rate Control Program: You have the option, during the setup mode, to choose either the Weight Control (H-1) program or the Cardiovascular (H-2) program.
General Maintenance Belt and Bed - Your treadmill uses a very high-efficient low-friction bed. Performance is maximized when the bed is kept as clean as possible. Use a soft, damp cloth or paper towel to wipe the edge of the belt and the area between the belt edge and frame. Also reach as far as practical directly under the belt edge. This should be done once a month to extend belt and bed life; use water only - no cleaners or abrasives.
TREADMILL BELT TRACKING ADJUSTMENT: The performance of your treadmill is dependent on the frame running on a reasonably level surface. If the frame is not level, the front and back roller cannot run parallel, and constant belt adjustment may be necessary. The treadmill is designed to keep the treadmill belt reasonably centered while in use. It is normal for some belts to drift near one side while the belt is running with no one on it.
Belt/deck lubrication procedure: Do not lubricate with other than Spirit approved lubricant. Your treadmill comes with one tube of lubricant and extra tubes can be ordered directly from Spirit. There are commercially available lube kits, but the only one currently approved by Spirit is Lube-N-Walk. These kits come with an application wand that makes applying the lubrication easier. The kits can be purchased from Spirit or directly from Lube-N-Walk here: http://www.jadfitness.
